[He blinks at Winter, looking confused by the question.]

Nuh-uh! Not one person!

I just came to visit. I wanted t'see what everyone was doing. It's good to check on all your team!

[reconstitution]

Oh, okay. Do you want anything to drink?

[ Since he's a visitor, may as well attempt this host thing again. He closes the journal, watching Takeshi. It comes to his attention that he maybe hasn't left the ship since the masquerade. Maybe Winter should have, but he didn't feel pressured to. ]

[throwsdown]

Oh, yeah! We should make something to drink! [He crawls up into a chair, because wow he's short down there and now he can be more on Winter's level. A little.] What kindsa' things do you like to drink? I like Pepsi! But they don't have Pepsi.

[reconstitution]

I haven't had that before. [ Not that he can remember, anyway. He watches Takeshi move into one of the other chairs, tipping his head back slightly in thought. ]

I like coffee, tea is okay. I don't like the orange drink in the machines, much.

[throwsdown]

The orange drink? Does it taste like soda?

[Takeshi is a child, ergo he has an addiction to terrible foods. Obviously.]

... I think coffee's for grownups.

[reconstitution]

I think it does? It's very sweet.

[ Winter shrugs a shoulder. ]

Coffee can be for grownups. It's a taste you get used to.

[throwsdown]

[He makes a blerugh expression.]

So coffee'd be gross to kids?

[reconstitution]

It's very bitter, so yes.
